Language localisation idea about nemo-mediainfo-tab HOT 15 CLOSED

Something like this: https://github.com/seigneurfuo/nemo-mediainfo-tab/commit/e843a313622f56d00dd9c09f90116618d4eac7dc

It takes the first file found on /usr/share/nemo-mediainfo-tab/translation.

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

I committed some changes. What do you think?
You're right: translation files were not packaged by anyone, so I decided to add them to the extension.
Can you test it?

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

I think your python script is way better than mine ! Auto locale detectection is great !

For translation files, I think putting them all in /usr/share/nemo-python/extensions is a bad idea, or maybe considering rename thoses files with the project name; something like that: nemo-mediainfo-tab-.csv.

I think it could create conflicts with any other applets if the translations files keep theres actuals names.

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

The files are in /usr/share/nemo-python/extensions/nemo-mediainfo-tab/locale.
It's impossible to create a conflict with a path like this...
Since is relative to the script position, code works on systems with a different extension path.
It don't pollute /usr/share folder.
I think it's a not-bad solution.

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

Ho ! I got wrong, I didn't understand how Debian packaging system works.
Yes in that case I dont have any modifications to add. I will test this to see if it works for me.

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

So, it works ! To test it out, i just use the .py script and the fr.csv file. French locale is loader from the file without any problem.

Then, v.0.3, here we go!
I'll update README.md with your name, if you don't mind.

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

No problem !

Will you push this 0.3 update on your other flavors too (the nautilus and mate version ?)

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

Done.
@yochananmarqos and @Corax26, time to update?

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

@linux-man Updated all three.

One issue: nemo-mediainfo-tab/locale should be copied to /usr/share/nautilus-python/extensions/.

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

@linux-man Fixed.
Shouldn't the locale files be in /usr/share/locale? For example: /usr/share/locale/en_GB/LC_MESSAGES/nemo-mediainfo-tab.csv.

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

These aren't normal locales, like the mo files you can find, and in my mind there's a difference between an application and an extension: it's like a 2nd class app who doesn't have the right to spread everywhere like an application does. Maybe it's just me...

It's almost there 😁
cp -a ${pkgname}-${pkgver}/nemo-extension/${pkgname}/locale/. ${pkgdir}/usr/share/nemo-python/extensions/nemo-mediainfo-tab/locale
or
cp -a ${pkgname}-${pkgver}/nemo-extension/${pkgname}/locale/. ${pkgdir}/usr/share/nemo-python/extensions/${pkgname}/locale

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

@linux-man Whoops. Got it.

I noticed other extensions install their other files in their own folder in /usr/share/ rather than the extension folder. It might be tidier to have the locale folder in /usr/share/nemo-mediainfo-tab/ instead.

from nemo-mediainfo-tab.

I see your point. I'm a little torn apart about that.
As a plus, this way the extension can be installed at .local with no changes.
I'll think about it.
